Even if you are faced with the problem of infertility, do not despair. Thanks to properly selected treatment, individual approach and the latest technology, it is possible to overcome the disease with the first cycles of treatment. The following methods of infertility diagnosis and treatment are available at iVF Riga clinic for couples and women under the age of 50:

IUI (intrauterine insemination, which is used in the case of minor sperm abnormalities)

IVF (in vitro fertilization, which is used in the case of endometriosis, minor deviations in the semen or unexplained infertility)

ISCI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection into an egg, which is used in severe cases of male infertility)

Male infertility

According to statistics, one in every six couples is faced with infertility. Traditionally, a childless family is associated with problems related to the woman’s reproductive health. The latest data, however, can refute this view. The share of male infertility accounts for 40% of infertile marriages, and this figure is growing steadily. iVF Riga is a clinic for infertility treatment and reproductive genetics where male patients can undergo a complete check-up and consult a urologist/andrologist. The treatment of male infertility includes:

Consultation by a physician specializing in urology and andrology

PICSI (selection of a sperm cell capable of fertilization for ICSI procedure)

Genetic tests and analysis

In recent years, genetics has become a component part of obstetrics and infertility treatment. Reproductive genetics can answer many questions and explain why the long-awaited pregnancy has not occurred. Genetic screening includes:

Consultation by a medical geneticist

Karyotyping (a special test for abnormalities in all chromosomes)

PGS (preimplantation genetic screening of all chromosomes of the embryo).

PGD (preimplantation genetic diagnosis of all chromosomes of the embryo in case of abnormal parents' karyotype)

Non-invasive determination of fetal Rh factor using the mother’s blood (the test is indicated for Rh negative women who have an Rh positive partner, in order to eliminate and avoid complications)

Molecular testing for thrombophilia (this testing is indicated for patients with a history of spontaneous abortion, miscarriage and complications with placentation)

Molecular testing of AZF regions of Y-chromosome (this genetic testing is indicated for men with azoospermia or oligospermia).
